@9to5Mac the other week I was at Formby woods (UK) and Apple were there filming a series called “Mechanical” which is apparently the code name for Silo. That was September 13th/14th, so if it is Silo could they still be filming season 3, or could it be season 4?
Silo season 3 is coming: Here’s everything we know right now https://9to5mac.com/2025/07/18/silo-season-3-is-coming-heres-everything-we-know-so-far/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
AppleInsiderThe engineer behind much of the Mac's early graphical user interfaces, QuickDraw, MacPaint, Hypercard and much more, William D. "Bill" Atkinson, died on June 5 of complications from pancreatic cancer.
Augie Ray…They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine — for people who can afford them... They condemn “cruelly high prices” — but fight to the death every effort to bring them down. They think the American standard of living is a fine thing — so long as it doesn't spread to all the people. And they admire the Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it. Now, my friends, that is the Wall Street Republican way of life." (2/2)
This quote about Republicans is as true today as when Harry Truman said it in 1948:
“They approve of the American farmer — but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home — but not for housing. They are strong for labor — but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor a minimum wage — the smaller the minimum the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all — but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools... (1/2)

AOC calls Elon Musk a ‘leech’ on the public
“This guy is a leech on the public. No matter how many billions he gets in tax cuts and government contracts, it will never be enough for him,” the representative wrote on X Saturday.
“Now he’s going after the elderly, the disabled, and orphaned children so he can pocket it in tax cuts for himself,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “It’s disgusting.”

Panic…yeah, it was just phishing for our password to "resolve" the issue. How did we confirm this?
By changing the username at the end of the URL, the site would make a brand new "report" for whatever account it was pointed at. lol.
I bet they got a lot of passwords!
🎣 Reel phishing! Our (unused) Twitter account got an email that some of our tweets had violated terms of service and our account was being deleted. The page was convincing, flagged two of our tweets that had images, and with the chaos of X, the URL seemed plausible!
But…
